Okay so I'm planning to buy BlazBlue when it comes out on PC (13th march). I want it to run full power and my PC is actually made of old and cheap parts. My max budget is 550 euros. So I thought of: AMD Phenom II X4 925 - 139 euros MSI 770-C45 Motherboard - 69 euros DDR3 2048Mo 106Mhz Transcend - 52.90 euros ATI Raden HD 5850 - 269 euros Total - 529.90 euros So what do you think of this Facepunch? I took an AMD CPU because the Intel ones won't go in my budget apparently.
current specs?
What's your current PSU? You'll probably need a new one.
You're an idiot, but I'll oblige anyway. [URL=http://img716.imageshack.us/i/fgsfds.png/][IMG]http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/5076/fgsfds.png[/IMG][/URL]

lol deathstar
[QUOTE=rampageturke;20557637]lol deathstar[/QUOTE] The rest is good though. Also it is funny how I now read Deskstar as Deathstar.
[QUOTE=rampageturke;20557637]lol deathstar[/QUOTE] Deathstar was a looooooooooooooooooooong time ago.
[QUOTE=Spartan89;20557987]Deathstar was a looooooooooooooooooooong time ago.[/QUOTE] No.
[QUOTE=sbradford26;20558012]No.[/QUOTE] Uh, yeah. That was like 8 years ago, Deskstars are fine now. I probably shouldn't even bother, judging from your other posts you're a moron who doesn't know what he's talking about. The whole Corsair PSU argument was a prime example of that.

[QUOTE=sbradford26;20558201]Ask rampageturk. They have horrible quality control. Also what is with the massive influx of morons and fanboys?[/QUOTE] I'm not a fanboy, I've only owned one Corsair PSU. It's generally accepted that Corsair makes good quality PSUs, so fuck off.

I never said corsair was not high quality I was saying that there are others that are perfectly acceptable for builds other than corsair. So please learn to read and come back when you are not 12. :downs:

I said that there isn't a need for a corsair psu in every build that there is many other acceptable brands. Really if you must be an idiot please do it over in fast threads.

Okay more info... Current specs: Windows XP Pro SP3 32bit My PSU is an Heden 480W GPU: Geforce 8500GT CPU: Athlon 64 X2 3500+ Dual Core 2ghz 1024mo DDR2 667mhz CORSAIR MSI K9AGM2 Motherboard And a 250go hdd from Samsung I don't think I'll change my PSU because I never had any problem with it.
You can't run a 5850 on a 'Heden' 480W PSU. Buy a new PSU. [URL=http://www.cubeupload.com][IMG]http://www.cubeupload.com/files/33dc00capture.png[/IMG][/URL] :gonk:
[QUOTE=ferrus;20569703]I don't recommend trying to run a 5850 on a 'Heden' 480W PSU. Better get a new one.[/QUOTE] Alright, I guess I'll go for another one then. There's a 580W unit for 55 euros. I'll have to save money on something though. There's a cheaper mobo but I don't know if it's any good (MSI K9N6PG2-V2)
Noooo. Get a good PSU, not another crap one.

Sorry OP, freaked out when I saw BlazBlue was coming out, do you have the source that says it is? Also, yeah new PSU I have almost the exact same build your thinking about getting, a 550W should do for a 5770, however give yourself some breathing room if you buy a 5850 recommend a 600 W (I have a 650W...from Corsair) just in case you overclock or something
[QUOTE=OldHickory;20570039]Sorry OP, freaked out when I saw BlazBlue was coming out, do you have the source that says it is?[/QUOTE] Just google it mate. PC version will be available only in France though. I guess you could import it. Also online play works with GFWL (<bah) and allow you to play against players from both PC and Xbox360 (<this=YES) edit: ok here's a source [url]http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/news/51385/BlazBlue-Calamity-Trigger-Coming-To-PC[/url] The 580W unit I'm talking about is made by Max-in-power Also I think I'll chose a 5770 instead to stay in my budget
[QUOTE=Sonic4Ever;20570167]made by Max-in-power[/QUOTE] Do not get
